Welcome to Episode #19 of Bills & Business. In this episode, Laura Davis sits down with Representative Tom Oliverson, Chairman of the House Republican Caucus and a practicing anesthesiologist, to discuss the intersection of healthcare, insurance, and AI in Texas policy.

Rep. Oliverson shares his journey from medicine to politics, his legislative priorities, and his insights on health care reform, insurance regulations, and the role of technology in modernizing the system. He also discusses House Bill 2002, which allows cash payments to count toward deductibles, and the broader implications for patient care and affordability.

Join Laura Davis, Co-Founder of USLege, for an in-depth conversation on the future of Texas healthcare, leadership in the legislature, and how AI is shaping policy discussions.
